The prettiest, piece of road
work done in the country lately,
.says the Cobb County Courier,
•was done near Austell last week.
The place spoken of was that of
■changing the road and making a
■new one. At a cost of $80 the
jnew machine made a road that
wovld otherwise have cost $200.
But the voters of Paulding say
we’ll stick to the old law. See.
A stranger from the far north
has been watching the buying
and selling of cotton here the
past week. He went out and saw
the cotton in the patch and was
astonished. “Why,” says he,
“I supposed a cotton boll was at.
the very least as big as my hat.
Nothing suprised me more than
their size.” So it is, and the
north’s view of the negro prob
lem is just about this correct.
As a whole, they know little of
us correctly .--Cobb County Cour

JUDGED BY ITS PAPER.
The hundreds of renders of The
New Era that reside any distance
from Dallas no doubt suppose
that, there are only seven or eight
stores in the town as they are
compslled to juJge from the col
umns of the paper and only see
ing seven or eight advertisers
think that, is tfye total and to to
towns of more stores where they
know competition—sharp and
strong—is in force and realize
that, it is to their personal bene
fit to trade at such places.
There are people in Paulding
county who hardly know the size
of the town, always going to
other places to do tlieir trading
because some of the merchants
here never advertise their busi
ness.
A few weeks ago we published
an article in which we outlined
a ew of Dallas’ industries,stores,
etc. Since people have been
heard to say that they didn’t
know Dallas had so many stores,
adding that they thought Davis
& Finch, J, F. Welch, Grillin,
Spinks & Co., the Dallas Grocery
Co., Dallas Hardware Co., Hay
Hardware Co., and a few others
were the only stores here.
Friends of the public, the above
are not all the stores in Dallas
by a great, many. There are
many more stores, large and
small ones, that you never hear
of. They never contribute one
cent to advertising and let the
home paper, that is read by thous
ands, carry their announcements
of bargains, etc., into the homes
of those that do the trading.
The merchants that advertise
bring the people to Dallas to
trade and of course when they
get here they naturally .go where
they have been invited, and you
that, do not advertise get the
nickel trade such as peanuts,
thread,etc.,-because they have
already bought their goods from
the advertisers.
Suppose that no merchant of
Dallas advertised and urged' the
people to come here to trade
would not the public think this
a dead town and go forty miles
around to avoid smelling the car
cass?
It is fortunate that there are a
few merchants here who can
realize the advantage of adver
tising, to say nothing of home
pride, and keep the town going.
The New Era lends all help
she can to her advertisers and
othersa« well, but naturally those
that, do not announce themselves
through her colnmns cannot ex
pect as much as those who assist
in maintaining the county paper,
and at the same time arc richly
rewarded for tlieir help.
The New Era is an instrument
through which you can herald
your business to all parts of the
rounty ai d surrounding country.
The New Era has taken a stand
for the upbuilding of the town
and county and expects to hold
on with a “bull dog’s tenacity.”
We have endeavored to hold the
.town together and are continual
ly advancing some idea that
would be beneficial if taken up
and “sifted.”
The home paper publishes
FREE OF CHARGE, deaths in
your family, marriages of your
people, the arrival and depart
ure of friends and relatives,
notice of singings, qieetings, as
sociations and everything of this
class. The paper does a great
many things for the public that
is seldom thought of by the peo
ple and little appreciated.
Without a newspaper Dallas
would hardly be known more
than twenty miles away.
Now, you can wonderfully ben
efit yourself by inserting an ad.
intiiepaperor subscribe for it
if you aro not already a subscrib
er.
Or you can remain a notch on
a stick and do nothing to en
courage the printer nor contribute
a penny for the material advance
ment of the community in which
you expect to live and die.
MAY CHANGB TRACK.
Mr. W. A. Vaughan, Jr., with
a squad of meri, arrived in the
city Tuesday evening to measure
and survey a new route for the
Southern Railway, beginning at
a point near the first bridge about
two miles south o' town and con
necting at Pumpkinvine trestle,
The object of the survey is to
avoid the heavy grades and
straighten the track eliminating
the curve on Pumpkinvine
bridge
This change in the track of the
Southern would be of much ben
efit to Dallas as it would neces
sarily move the track on the
north side of town.
Not a Sick Day Since.
“I was taken severely sick
with kidnev trouble. I tried all
sorts of medicines, none of which
relieved me. One day 1 saw an
ail. of your Electric Bitters and
determined to try that. After
taking a few dases I felt relieved
and soon thereafter was entirely
cured, and have not seen a sick
day since. Neighbors of mine
have been cured of rheumatism,
Neuralgia, Liver and Kidnev
troubles and general debility.”
